Far, far away and out of sight, that’s where April, Dave, Cindy, Rick and the Godfather are creating life on their own terms. From the depths of the flood channels under Sin City, to a reclaimed military bunker in the middle of the dusty, heated Californian nowhere land to beyond the stratosphere where Mars now lives on earth. Each individual has been flung into periling circumstances on this rollercoaster ride called life. Through the hustle, pain, and laughter, we are whisked away to an unfamiliar world where we discover its inhabitants to be souls not unlike our very own.

In the late 80s and early 90s, the streets of downtown Manhattan were the site of a collision between two vibrant subcultures: skateboarding and hip hop. Narrated by Zoo York co-founder Eli Gesner with an original score by legendary hip-hop producer Large Professor (Nas, A Tribe Called Quest), ALL THE STREETS ARE SILENT brings to life the magic of the time period and the convergence that created a style and visual language with an outsized cultural effect.

Wir waren jene, die wussten, aber nicht verstanden, voller Informationen, aber ohne Erkenntnis, randvoll mit Wissen, aber mager an Erfahrung. So gingen wir, von uns selbst nicht aufgehalten.

Roger Willemsen

Was werden zukünftige Generationen über uns denken, wenn wir bereits Geschichte sind? In WER WIR WAREN blicken wir auf den gegenwärtigen Zustand der Welt und fragen uns im Geiste von Willemsens Vermächtnis, ob sie an uns verzweifeln werden. Sechs Denker*innen und Wissenschaftler*innen reflektieren die Gegenwart und blicken in die Zukunft.

Bloodletting (or blood-letting) is the withdrawal of blood from a patient to prevent or cure illness and disease. Bloodletting, whether by a physician or by leeches, was based on an ancient system of medicine in which blood and other bodily fluids were regarded as “humours” that had to remain in proper balance to maintain health. It is claimed to have been the most common medical practice performed by surgeons from antiquity until the late 19th century, a span of over 2,000 years.

I discovered this wrestling community in my hometown of Quebec City about 2 years ago and was astounded. I couldn’t believe this existed in my town and the energy was so electric. I was totally taken. That was the beginning. Then I’d always known my friend Mitch could be such a good actor, but he’d never done it before. I felt he, in that universe, could be really interesting. A year after that, a year ago, my favorite band Men I Trust released a new album on which I heard the song ‘Found Me.’ I sort of became obsessed with it, and that’s where it all clicked.

Set against the dark, gloomy and frigid winter of Quebec, I wanted to convey every person’s need to realize themselves – to reach their full transcendent self – however big, small, normal, or totally bizarre their desire for self-expression may be.
